We have entered a very serious era in law enforcement. In particular, police are being given the power to confiscate firearms when there is no evidence that any crime has happened or is about to happen. This is no less than an extrajudicial confiscation of private property based on the whims of local political authorities. It should worry anyone who supports the integrity of law enforcement. Unfortunately, the gun-grabbers believe they and those doing their bidding are exempt from constraints on their power to confiscate private firearms. It portends a dark future for those exercising their rights as they should be protected under the Second Amendment.
